Abstract
We report the prenatal diagnosis of 6 cases of Pruneโbelly syndrome in the 2^nd^ trimester. The sonographic diagnosis was based on the findings of oligohydramnios, renal anomalies, and a lower abdominal cystic mass representing the abnormal dilatation of the bladder on conventional 2โdimensional sonographic examination. We discuss the role of Doppler imaging and 3โdimensional sonography as complementary methods to conventional sonography. Four of our 6 cases were confirmed with associated defects. ยฉ 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2010
